About this file

This document is the Official Prevailing Wage Rate Schedule for the State of Michigan, effective November 2025, applicable to state-funded projects in Wexford County. The schedule establishes mandatory wage rates for various skilled trades and labor classifications required on prevailing wage projects. The wage rates are organized by job classification and apprenticeship levels, with separate rates for straight time, time-and-a-half, and double time compensation. The document was downloaded from the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO) on February 23, 2026, with a contract award date of May 23, 2026. The rates apply to numerous trades including power equipment operators (highway and heavy, and commercial divisions), carpenters, electricians, plumbers, pipefitters, ironworkers, roofers, sheet metal workers, sprinkler fitters, and various laborer classifications (common, skilled, and landscaping).

The prevailing wage rates vary significantly by trade classification and experience level, with journeyman rates ranging from approximately $36.87 to $110.76 per hour for straight time work. Apprentice rates are tiered by level or years of experience and are substantially lower than journeyman rates. Most classifications permit four 10-hour workdays, though some restrict this flexibility. Make-up day allowances for inclement weather are specified individually by trade. The rates were updated between October 28, 2025, and November 5, 2025, ensuring compliance with current labor standards. These rates are mandatory for all workers on state-funded projects in Wexford County and must be paid regardless of prevailing market conditions or contractor preference.
